Abstract

Olistostromy z warstw krośnieńskich Karpat Środkowych

In the Polish Flysch Carpathians, at a certain distance from the front of some nappes, their detached fragments occur, regarded so far to be tectonic outliers or klippes. In the present paper they are interpreted as olisthostromes and olistholiths, which originated in the final phase of flysch sedimentation.
